You may also want to look at csync2 http://oss.linbit.com/csync2/ for keeping the copies synchronised, it's perhaps better suited than rsync where you have such a large collection of files where there are not that many updates going on (i.e. the searching for updates takes significantly longer than transferring those updates).
